Chamberlain and Appeasement: the Video debate

British prime minister Neville Chamberlain's policy of appeasement is perhaps one of the most controversial subjects in modern world history. In the generation after the Second World War, he was portrayed as the 'guilty man'; the man who failed to stand up to the dictators. But does he deserve this reputation?

IGCSE students are asked to prepare arguments for and against the policy of appeasement and in particular the role of Chamberlain. Then they have to make their case to the rest of the class, to the video camera and through this website, to the rest of the world! (Back to activities)
